Shahrukh - Profile
"I wish I looked as good as he does. And I wish I danced
as well as he does!"
~ regarding Hrithik Roshan
-------------------------------------------------------
"Yes, I do have a close circle of friends and I am very fortunate
to have them as friends. I feel very close to them I think friends
are everything in life after your family. You come across lots of
people all the time but you only make very few friends and you have
to be true to them otherwise what's the point in life?"
-------------------------------------------------------
"I'd rather sink trying to be different, than stay afloat like
everyone else"
-------------------------------------------------------
"I cannot repay my fans for what they have done for me, they
have given me so much love and that love has taken me to the number
1 position where I am today, the only thing I can do for my fans
is to never stop working, and to do films till the very end, it
is the only way I can express my love for them."
-------------------------------------------------------
"To me, Devdas is the end of love stories. I've portrayed an
obsessed lover, a nice lover, an angry lover, a romantic lover.
And now I've played Devdas. For someone who doesn't even like love
stories, I've played an awful lot of lovers. Personally speaking,
I wouldn't see any of the romantic films I've acted in."
-------------------------------------------------------
"I'm the luckiest man in the world and I don't want to hide
from the faces I'm acting for. So I don't surround myself with guards,
I've never given an interview in which I've said I feel bad that
I can't go shopping or I can't go to Chowpatty and eat bhelpuri
without being mobbed. I'm not the kind of guy who goes out wearing
dark glasses (I don't think I'm a big enough star to hide behind
them, honest). I go to see movies in the cinema theatres, I go to
restaurants with my family and friends even though I know people
are going to disturb me there."
-------------------------------------------------------
"God has become a generic term like `mind blowing.' It is embarrassing.
I would have said that to Amitabh Bachchan, Naseeruddin Shah, Nana
Patekar. I used to tell them I want to stand in the same space as
you. I've told Kamal Haasan, I just want to touch you. They are
the gods of acting. When people call me God, I say, no, I'm still
an angel or saint of acting. I still have a long way to go."
-------------------------------------------------------
"I have no competition. Every year the names I'm pitted against
keep changing. You can't cream the competition, you have to kill
it."
~ August 2004
-------------------------------------------------------
"I wanted to become an actor because I saw Mr. Amitabh Bachchan
acting"
~ In an interview for Mohabbatein
-------------------------------------------------------
"All that's left is the Best Actress!"
~ Filmfare 2002
-------------------------------------------------------
"I don't kiss on screen. Period."
-------------------------------------------------------
"I'm no megalomaniac. Even I found it boring to have an entire
website devoted to trivia about me. No one's interested in a one
man show, unless you happen to be an Amitabh Bachchan."
-------------------------------------------------------
"Cinema in India is like brushing your teeth in the morning.
You can't escape it."
-------------------------------------------------------
"Whenever I fail as a father or husband... a toy and a diamond
always works."
-------------------------------------------------------
"If I talk to a girl, it's assumed that I'm having a scene
with her. If I don't, then it's assumed that I'm gay."
-------------------------------------------------------
"I'd like to believe there's a little of Hitler and Napoleon
in me. Even if I try, I can't be as selfless as Mahatma Gandhi and
Mother Teresa."
-------------------------------------------------------
"Recently an actor asked me to teach him how to speak fast.
Wasn't I once criticised for speaking too fast? Now they're doing
it my way."
-------------------------------------------------------
"Maybe the country doesn't pray for me like they do for Sachin
Tendulkar, but I know I'm on a good wicket as well."
-------------------------------------------------------
"I work like a retailer. I sell my services, take my money
and keep it in the bank."
-------------------------------------------------------
"I look upon life as a book, and the people I love are like
rose petals kept between the pages. Each time I turn a page of my
life, I find a rose petal, reminding me of my beautiful memories"
-------------------------------------------------------
"I still beleive that most actors are better than me"
-------------------------------------------------------
"I'm basically a lazy man & want to take it easy after 30"
-------------------------------------------------------
"I's difficult to believe, but I am a shy person"
-------------------------------------------------------
"My success is incidental, it's not raison d'etre of my existance of
an actor"
-------------------------------------------------------
"The closest you can come to being content is when you die"
-------------------------------------------------------
"Reading is my freedom to go where I want"
-------------------------------------------------------
"Walk on with hope in your heart, and you'll never walk alone"
